Gamers share their favorite ‘overlooked’ releases of 2024
While we’ve all been busy gushing over big releases like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Metaphor: ReFantazio, some hidden gems have quietly captured the hearts of players in 2024. Thanks to Redditor Galaxy40k, a thread in r/Games is spotlighting the overlooked stars of this year’s gaming lineup—and the passion is palpable.
Galaxy40k kicked things off with their recommendation for Shadow of the Ninja Reborn, calling it “one of the best 2D action platformers ever made.” Their take? It belongs up there with genre heavyweights like Rondo of Blood and Alien Soldier. It may not have the screenshot-worthy pizzazz of a game like Blasphemous, but its detailed mechanics and expressive pixel art make it an unmissable experience for hardcore fans. Sadly for fans, this game hasn’t hit the mainstream radar yet—but that’s what these threads are for!
